The reason for this tremendous increase in users is simple—Goodrich wears longer than other footwear, and farmers have found it out, when a man buys a pair of Goodrich “Hi-Press” and they last so much longer and are so much more comfortable, and so mate- rially cut down that big footwear bill— he's going to ¢ell his friends, é idhepes apart — it can't, for it is made in One One Solid Piece—that’s the Goodrich way.

GOODRICH RUBBER COMPANY Akreoa, OHIO Goodrich Hi-Press Rubber Footwear | SPORT FLASHES HOT OFF WIRE Benny Leonard, champion light- weight boxer of the world, in a special interview with a representa- tive of “Domestic Wngineering,” Chicago, says he is in training every day of his life and the daily bath helps to keep him fit. ‘ “To keep fit,” says the young man who has made a fortune as an expert glove wielder, “means mak- ing a study of yourself physically, and if you will do that, you are bound to improve mentally. “Lots of people are under the im- pression that all ¢ boxer has to do is to go into training for a few weeks before an important contest get into the ring and take as few wallops as he can, and collect his end of the purse. True, many box- ers follow that line, but they nev- er ‘get to the top. “Anybody can be a plain, ordin- ary ‘pug.’ It doesn’t take any brains to get punched to pieces, but it's the fellow who makes a study of him- self, leads a clean, normal life and pursues that purpose relentlessly, who gets out of the rut of second, third and fourth raters and rises to the top or pretty close to it “That is true not only in the boxing world, but in any other field crown the Iongest was Tommy Ryan, who defended the title 10 yeas and retired undefeated.

Good health is looked upon as &@ man’s greatest the simple reason that, if a n't well he cannot realize bition. You find most of cessful business men the picture health, Why? Because they realize that health is the most precious thing they have, and being without it means failure, “I owe my position of lightweight champion boxer of the world to the ability to think quicker than my opponents. I venture to state that most of the men I meet have a hard- er punch than I have, or 4t least as good as mine, anyway. My work is to out-think them. A man can’t be a quick thinker unless he’s as near perfect physically as it is possible for him to be, “Frequent bathing helps to keep me in condition. Every morning as soon as I get out of bed, I get under the shower. I have the water nice and warm and gradually cool it off, finishing up with the water fairly cold. I'll say that's starting the day right After a big scrap, I im- mediately get into’a tub bath, with the water as hot as I can stand it. A very hot bath takes most of the stiffness out of me, and a good sleep on top of that brings me around in pretty good shape the morning. 'y advice to anybody who wants to got ahead, whether he's a boxer or a business man, is, make a study of himself. Make up your mind to take the kind of a ually bath that suits you. Expe,iment, and you'll soon'know. Eat the kind of food that will do you the most good. Select it carefully, and main- tain that diet. Exercise regularly —not too strenuously—but enough to keep your muscles supple. “The man who is constantly! wor- rying about his physical condition, is carrying a load that ts bound to affect his success in business. Daily bathing is one of many good habits that will enable him to feel better and think better.” EDDLEMAN AND WEINERT ARE SIGNED BY GREYBULL Announcements have. just made that Joe Eddleman and Charles Weinert, two of the mainstays of Greybull's baseball organization © last year, had been signed to play with the Greybull team which will be en- tered in the Midwest league this sea gon.
